In Geierswalde, relaxation and active holiday are bywords for sportive activities on water and land.
A circular path runs around the entire lake, in addition to four transregional cycle routes. The track is tarmacked throughout. Several viewing points provide welcome resting spots.
The blue cubes on Windspitze refer to the Internationale Bauausstellung (IBA – International Architecture Exhibition) that had a lasting effect on the lake district from 2000 to 2010. Its initiatives produced many ideas, such as the floating houses in Geierswalde.
The water sports school ‘SurfRenner’ east of the lake offers lessons and equipment hire.
The bathing beach with its fine sand attracts many bathers and sunseekers hungry for relaxation.
The water sports centre on the western shore offers a wide range of activities for boaters and sailors.
The 1st Lusatian Lake District Water Sports Club has achieved national importance with its sailing activities. Its objective is to establish this site as the third Olympic site for Paralympics in the Federal Republic of Germany.
The nearby water ski school offers the opportunity of learning and pursuing this sport.
Last but not least, the restaurants ‘LeuchtTurm’, ‘Zur Grubenlampe’ and ‘Ulf’s Scheune’ form a highly recommended culinary triangle that is open throughout the year.
During the season, takeaways near the beach and the ‘Grill & Chill – Donuts’ below the lighthouse provide further culinary treats.
